The Highest Standard in Colorectal Care


Colon & Rectal Surgery
Residency Program
Colorectal Surgery Group PhotoLooking for experienced, compassionate colorectal professionals? Look no further. UT Physicians Colon and Rectal Clinic is one of the largest colorectal practices in the country, delivering exceptional colon and rectal care.

Our highly qualified team of physicians, allied health professionals, and office staff consistently deliver the best possible outcomes—exceeding national benchmarks. Each of our specialists is certified by the American Board of Colon and Rectal Surgery—the regulating board of the nation’s colorectal standards.

Among the Best

Not only are our colorectal surgeons caring physicians, but many are also active in research and continue to pursue advanced training to provide the most advanced treatment of complex and basic colon and rectal diseases and conditions. Our physicians and staff are active and involved members of the communities in which we live and practice. We actively support local healthcare initiatives by donating our time and expertise.

Colorectal Specialties as Individual and You

Because no two individuals or patients are alike, UT Physicians Colon and Rectal Surgery specializes in your individual care. We take into careful consideration the needs of every patient, with special regard to differences in gender, age, family history, and background. Our Colon and Rectal specialists strive to provide the most appropriate and effective treatment and management of your colorectal health.

We recognize there are gender-specific considerations, deserving specialized care. We are experts in the treatment of pelvic floor disorders, including fecal incontinence, constipation, and prolapse as well as other colorectal disorders that affect patients’ everyday lives.

Preventative colonoscopy screenings are the standard of care to detect health issues before they become serious. Many conditions that affect both men and women are easily treated when detected early, including inflammatory bowel disease, hemorrhoids, diverticulitis, and colorectal cancer.
